2 MB limit on the drag ‘n drop feature. Forget about using a song now. Only a low resolution pic

Web only method for viewing files that were backed up

Exit popups! Want 20% off? Forget that, just try to exit out and you will be offered 35% off

The fact that you don’t get their best price if you sign right up

Nag window about not being backed up, see below. No kidding, with a 15MB limit?

Gee, No Kidding!

OK, we’re fair, here is what we liked:

We WERE able to delete the sync folder desktop icon this time

It installs fast & easy

We did NOT immediately get inundated with emails regarding upgrading, just one with status and an opportunity to upgrade at 20% off (you can get more than that off)

File backup and restore speed

What Other Online Backup Service Offers Only 15 Days Anymore?

MyPCBackup Free Trial Needs Improving

Quite honestly we’re surprised they are still in business with this poor of a free trial (Perhaps people REALLY DO LOVE their service!). 15 MEGAbytes is a joke. And why not 30 days? Anyone who can endure the nag windows and emails for 30 days deserves a prize.

The company IS very responsive to us and we have just today made a plea with them that they increase the storage limit on the free trial – we’ll see what happens.

That nag window, pictured above (“Some of your files are Not Protected”) KEEPS popping up all day long. I cannot remember any other online backup free trial doing anything so obnoxious as that.

We will say that upload and download speed seemed very good, but remember, these are REALLY SMALL samples to judge from! In the past there have been complaints that MyPCBackup was slow on the upload – or – got slow once a person surpassed the 200GB mark and tried to actually take advantage of “Unlimited Online Backup”.
